Chapter 2819: Chapter 2819: Guarding Against Me (5)
"Sister Mochou, long time no see." Zhang Changyang smiled. "Because of you, Qianqian hasn’t been eating well or sleeping well."
"You two..."
"We’re already married." Zhang Changyang’s tone didn’t change at all, extremely calm. "We missed so many years, it wasn’t easy to get here. Now I’ve got no regrets, but my wife still has one regret, and that’s you. Once I kill you today, then there really won’t be any regrets left."
"Haha..." Mo Chou suddenly burst out laughing. "Want to kill me? That won’t be so easy." As she spoke, she pulled something out and threw it into the sky, where it exploded into a firework.
A blue blossom, clearly visible even in the daytime sky.
Only, after the firework finished, a long time passed and there was no reaction from anywhere around.
Mo Chou anxiously looked around in all directions.
"Stop looking." At this moment, Yang Ruxin strolled over from afar, Xiaobai at her side, and Xiaobai’s black-and-white duo behind. "The dozen or so people you brought have all turned into the stray dogs’ picnic."
"You..." Mo Chou was genuinely dumbfounded now. No matter how good her skills were, these three old freaks around her were all no weaker than she was, especially Dao Xuzi—she had no way to deal with his poisons. Now it looked like even getting out of this alive was impossible.
"Senior Sister, are you going to do it yourself, or do you want me to do it?" Nian Qianqian chuckled. "I’ve been waiting forty years for this."
"That depends on your ability." Mo Chou knew she had to make a last-ditch gamble, and her hands moved even faster, taking on a desperate, mutually-assured-destruction stance.
"Hmph." Nian Qianqian snorted coldly, not the least bit afraid of her. But before she could strike, a blur flashed before her eyes; Zhang Changyang had already stepped in and taken over the exchange of blows, and he couldn’t help frowning.
"Senior Nian." Yang Ruxin hurriedly waved at her. "A fight is a fight no matter who’s doing it. If you want to ’clean house’ for the sect, just make sure you deliver the final blow at the end. Why so serious?"
To be honest, how they addressed Nian Qianqian was a complete mess. Sometimes it was "senior," sometimes "Aunt Nian," sometimes "Master’s wife"—they just called her whatever came to mind.
But she was very easygoing about it; whatever they called her, she answered.
That was something you had to admire.
"Xinxin’s right." Nian Qianqian wasn’t hung up on it and nodded directly. "But since we finally found her, there’s no way we’re letting her go today."
Previously Sakai Moku had sent out multiple distress signals, twice many times over, and Mo Chou hadn’t reacted at all. She only responded on the third time. If they let her run again now, run back to Wa Country, it would be anything but easy to find her again.
Zhang Changyang’s skills were higher than Nian Qianqian’s, so Mo Chou soon could only defend. Then, with one careless opening, Zhang Changyang kicked her flying. She traced an arc through the air and crashed to the ground.
Her veil fell, revealing a face like wrinkled leather.
"You..." Nian Qianqian frowned. "This is the result of qi deviation."
"Heh, that old bastard was always guarding against me." Mo Chou wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and struggled to her feet. "The ’Thousand Faces Secret Scripture’ was actually split into two parts, and I only took half. That’s why I ended up like this." She came back for the sole purpose of finding the other half; otherwise her face would never recover.
"You cultivated the Yulu Palace secret book without Master’s permission. Isn’t this exactly what you deserve?"
"Don’t tell me you never practiced it?"
Nian Qianqian shook her head. "No. That’s why I’m still me."
